  15. Yet it may be noted that in Maori mythology Tangaroa is a deity in regard to whose origin there is much confusion, for he is described both as the son and the brother-in-law of Rangi (see Smith, 191 3, p. 118) and as the son of Te-more-tu ("Ultimate Space") (see White, i. 24). This might indicate a belief in the priority of Tangaroa over Rangi.
